"The problem with this movie is it doesn't know what it wants to be. We can clearly tell its trying to push female empowerment at us but it doesn't have the execution it needs to pull it off.
I'm a firm believer in repeating the problems of the past doesn't fix the past. So when they have the boy give up literally everything he knows & loves to follow the girl along her adventure doesn't make me feel good. Like yes I get that girls often did that in movies all the time but making the boy now do that doesn't make it better.
Back to the part about female empowerment. The prince has a creepy sister vying for the throne. The only reason she's redeemable is because all of her "ideas" are just modern practices. This girl literally cut the eyes out of a portrait to spy on others & I'm supposed to route for her?
Cindys dress that she gets to go to the ball in is ugly. This is THE moment in every Cinderella story & it doesn't even compliment her well either. Yes it's supposed to be her dream design, but if that's the best you got girl you suck. When the fairy godmother dress outshines Cinderellas you know somethings wrong. Yes the fairy godmother is going to be really out there & hard to beat but that has to be done for a Cinderella movie. It's an unspoken requirement.
The songs are also cringey. Only a few of them actually work, even then they still kind of suck. When you try so hard to make a song your own version it falls flat. There's a reason so many people had a problem with Glee, & this took it 20 steps beyond Glee. What sucks is you can tell the actors can sing, not all of them but most. Yet none are given the right moments to work. Even Idina Menzel's, who we know can sing, voice is not allowed to truly shine. Material girl is one of the better songs but when they push "this is an original cover" all the good falls away. The exact same problem happens with the story. "
"It’s not as bad as people want it to be. Yes the music is not it and the whole quirky girl personality is off putting, but I absolutely adored the Royal family. The queen was definitely worth watching this and Prince Charming has the cutest bond with his group. And Evil stepmother absolutely slayed “Dream girl” . It’s definitely not the original live actions and it could do with some fixing up but it’s not worthy of all the hate. Camilla has a great voice, and did her thing with those songs, let’s give some credit."
"It’s not for musical fans (who’ll be turned off by the poor staging and mediocre cinematography; not to mention how they try to virtuesignal against the concept of being a musical), it’s not for jukebox fans (because, while the songs are well-sung, they either have nothing to do with the scenes, like Rhythm Nation, or they’re as basic and surface level predictable as it gets, like the evil stepmother and stepsisters singing Material Girl), it’s not for people who like fairy tales (because they’re even more defensive about making a fairy tale and saying how stupid and unrealistic fairy tales are), and people who hate fairy tales and/or musicals will have already been turned off by it. And it’s DEFINITELY not for Cinderella fans because there’s 10,000 other Cinderella movies, most of them much better than this one—including the Disney remake, which I can’t say I liked, but this movie is clearly the watery Blue Sky cola to that movie’s Pepsi. And somehow seems to act like, between making Cinderella a Strong Independent Woman (literally Option B of any Cinderella story with Option C being “modern setting”), all of this “ZOMG people SINGING?! In a MUSICAL?!?!” and “Fairy tales don’t make a lot sense, huh?” is some white-hot hot take like they’re the first people to think of it. The term “unearned sense of accomplishment” has never felt more deserved. "
